Valuing Arts Education in Isolated Queensland.

Duncum, Paul; Cassidy, Howard

Education in Rural Australia, v4 n1 p25-30 1994

A survey of home-schooling parents and staff associated with the Longreach School of Distance Education in a remote area of Queensland (Australia) examined attitudes about the importance of drama and visual arts education. The majority of parents valued their children's participation in the arts and would like to see more arts education included in the curriculum. (LP)
